Had mine done a month ago and was told by the tech that the state accepts both inspection methods so that all authorized smog inspection stations can be accommodated dependent on the equipment they have. The state does not require an inspection station to purchase the new OBD2 analysis instruments. The tech also mentioned that the shop owner wasn't considering purchasing the OBD2 instrument due to the additional cost and his current setup was working fine for both non and OBD2 cars. Prior to having mine done I called around and didn't find anyone local with the new system.
